What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant wilfully or negligently causing undue damage to the rental unit. The Landlord served a valid N5 notice, but the Tenant did not void the notice by repairing the damage or making arrangements to pay for the repairs.
The ruling
The Landlord proved the grounds for termination of the tenancy and the claim for compensation. The tenancy is terminated effective March 23, 2024, and the Tenant must pay the Landlord $5,604.35, which includes the repair costs and application filing fee. If the Tenant does not pay by March 23, 2024, the Tenant will owe interest on the outstanding balance.
